Metabolic Degradation

<p>The presence of ultraviolet filters (UV) in personal and care products, like cosmetics or sunscreens, is quite common. Consequently, they have been found most of water systems (e.g. ocean, river, aquifers). In porous media, the two main processes governing their fate are sorption and degradation. In the case of degradation, it is mainly governed by co-metabolism processes, which means that these molecules are broken due to the presence of more labile organic carbon which facilitate an enzymatic activity in the system. On the other hand, most of UVs are characterized by high . Thus, sorption plays a central role in their fate. In dynamic biological systems, like hyporheic zones, bioremediation sites or Managed Aquifer Recharge facilities, a high amount of microorganisms, forming biofilms, can be found. In this work, we have evaluated the role of biomass as a sorbent of UV-filters. Furthermore, we have also evaluated the importance of redox conditions in the co-metabolic degradation, and thus, the production of biomass. To achieve this general objective, a conceptual and a numerical model were developed. The results of the models were compared with previous published data by Liu et al. (2013), which performed a set of batch experiments to evaluate the fate of UV under different redox conditions. The compounds evaluated were common UV filters: Benzophenone-3, the benzotriazoles (UV-326 and UV-329)), octyl 4-methoxycinnamatte and octocrylene.</p>

Legal Frameworks

Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) with reclaimed water plays a particular role in water stress mitigation, due to both the large potential benefits achieved in terms of sustainable water resources management as well as the complexity of the planning and implementation. This paper focuses on the role of policy in establishing water quality related legal frameworks that are crucial for MAR development. It analyses and compares the current practice of shaping boundary conditions, particularly in a European context but with some international comparison. The work reports on the legal aspects considered most relevant for MAR in the European Union and summarises issues addressed in aquifer recharge regulations and guidelines. Some potential actions are proposed to develop a suitable guidance framework for further exploitation of MAR benefits.
